Aulet Fuet (350g)

What is Fuet?

Spanish fuet from Catalonia is another type of spicy Spanish dry-cured sausage. Other regions on the east coast and Balearic Islands also produce it.

It’s made from finely minced lean pork and fat, seasoned with salt, black pepper, and sometimes other spices like garlic and is encased in fine thin pork tripe.
It is typically long and thin, resembling a small, slender salami.

A characteristic feature is its white, powdery coating, which is a harmless, edible mould that develops during the curing process. This mould contributes to its unique flavour and helps preserve the sausage. The casing is edible but some prefer to remove it and others not. If you have any food intolerances, it may be best not to consume it. It has a firm, dense texture with a taste that is savoury, slightly peppery, and has a distinct tang from the curing process.

It is commonly eaten as a snack or appetizer and sliced thinly, is a staple of charcuterie boards and is enjoyed on its own or with bread and/or breadsticks.
